District of Columbia Court of Appeals March 29, 2012, No. 11-CM-74 (Fretes-Zarate v. United States)

PER CURIAM:

Appellant, Liz V. Fretes-Zarate, appeals her conviction for simple assault in violation of D.C.Code § 22-404 (2009 Supp.). She argues that she had a constitutional right to a trial by jury for this offense because a conviction subjects her to deportation under federal immigration law.
